Fewer Seats, Higher Bar, Sharper Competition
SVSAE (previously the Rajiv Gandhi Scholarship) has tightened its criteria — eligibility now sits at the Top 50 THE-ranked universities instead of the earlier Top 150, and the academic cut-off has moved up too. That means a strong profile on paper can still miss out if the application isn't positioned correctly from the start.

What Is the Swami Vivekanand Rajasthan Study Abroad Scholarship?
The Swami Vivekanand Study Abroad Rajasthan Scholarship (SVSAE) is the Rajasthan Government's flagship overseas education scholarship — the successor to the earlier Rajiv Gandhi Scholarship (RGSAE). It funds Rajasthan-domicile students who've secured admission at a Top 50 THE-ranked university, covering tuition, living costs, travel, and insurance so that a place at a world-class university doesn't come down to family finances. As study abroad consultants in Jaipur, this is one of the scholarships we help students navigate most often.
We've covered how this scholarship has evolved over recent intakes in our earlier guides — including the shift from Top 150 to Top 50 eligible universities and what that meant for applicants — in our SVSAE 2026 intake update. This page reflects the latest 2026–2027 criteria.
Tuition, living, travel & insurance
E1 category students (income up to ₹8 lakh) receive full funding across tuition, living expenses, airfare, and insurance. E2 category students (₹8–25 lakh) receive partial tuition and living support.
75%+ academic requirement
Only students meeting the current academic cut-off are eligible to apply — this has been raised in recent cycles, so a profile that qualified in an earlier intake may not automatically qualify now.
Eligibility Criteria — 2026–2027
| Criterion | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Domicile | Permanent resident of Rajasthan |
| Academic record | 75%+ in the qualifying degree |
| University | Admission secured at a university currently ranked in the THE Top 50 |
| Income category — E1 | Family income up to ₹8 lakh per annum — full funding |
| Income category — E2 | Family income ₹8–25 lakh per annum — partial funding |
| Course level | Master's, PhD, and select undergraduate programs |
| Other | Only one government scholarship per student; government employees generally not eligible |
Exact income slabs, age limits, and the university ranking list are notified fresh each cycle — confirm your specific case with our counsellors rather than relying on last year's numbers.

How Easy Admissions Jaipur, Rajasthan Helps
Easy Admissions — West Headquarters, Jaipur, with branch offices in Udaipur and Chittorgarh, is built specifically around Rajasthan's own scholarships — SVSAE chief among them. This isn't a national consultancy that also handles Rajasthan; it's a Rajasthan-first team that happens to place students worldwide. We work with students from Jaipur, Udaipur, Chittorgarh, Jodhpur, Ajmer, Bhilwara, Sikar, Kota, Bikaner, Alwar, Bharatpur, and every other district across the state — the scholarship is open to all of Rajasthan, and so are we.
Because SVSAE is our focus rather than one scholarship among dozens, we track every cycle's changes — the shift from Top 150 to Top 50 eligible universities, revised income slabs, the raised academic cut-off — as they happen, not after students find out the hard way. Here's what that specialisation actually looks like in practice:
Eligibility & category assessment
We confirm your domicile, income category (E1/E2), and academic eligibility against the current cycle's criteria — before you commit time or money to a university application that won't qualify.
University matching against the live Top 50 list
The eligible university list is re-ranked every cycle. We match your profile against universities that are both a strong academic fit and currently scholarship-eligible.
Documentation built for how SVSAE reviewers actually assess files
Income certificates, transcripts, SOP, and LORs — prepared and checked against what the scholarship's verification stage is looking for, not a generic template.
Application & verification support
We manage your file through submission and verification, flagging and fixing issues before they become a reason for rejection.
Visa and post-selection guidance
Once selected, we carry you through visa filing and travel preparation so the scholarship actually converts into a seat abroad.
A track record across Rajasthan, not just Jaipur
Students we've guided have gone on to Queen Mary University of London, the University of Bristol, and the University of Toronto, among other Top 50 institutions — from cities across the state, not only the capital.
500+ families guided, one point of contact throughout
Over 500 Rajasthan families have gone through this process with us. You deal with the same counsellor from your first eligibility call through to visa filing — not a different desk at every stage.
📍 Our offices: West Headquarters, Jaipur, with branches in Udaipur and Chittorgarh — or get the same specialist guidance remotely if you're calling from Jodhpur, Ajmer, Bhilwara, Sikar, Kota, Bikaner, Alwar, Bharatpur, or anywhere else in Rajasthan.
